i know. these kids today. you give them something and you say, "this is for making phone calls" and you give them something else and you say, "this is for playing video games after all your homework is done"-- and what do they do? they start a band! what next?
Literacies is a magazine from canada about adult literacy research and practice
Literacies was funded as a literacy project until April 2009. Unfunded we can no longer publish a regular hardcopy version of the journal. We continue to talk about adult literacy research and practice wherever and whenever we can... including on this blog. Please join the conversation.
that's what i do, the art of hanging around. everything i do is hanging around. ... it's getting to know people and spending time with people and observing with some care, a lot of care--and then what? it's about writing in a way that fully tells the story.

You know, I just think at times that I am catching up and then something like this comes up and I feel like I am so far behind again.
I really am far behind, I just like to think that I am keeping up a little bit.
But wow! I am so far behind!!!!
It took the whole play for me to figure out that the person on the right was playing the bass.
Thanks again for at least giving me some glimpse of what's happening way ahead of me!
